Passport photo for UPSC
Crop, resize and compress your photo to the exact UPSC spec — 350×350 px, JPG, 20–300 KB, white background. Done in your browser.
UPSC photo requirements
The UPSC application generally needs a front-facing colour photograph, 350 × 350 px, in JPG, between 20 KB and 300 KB, on a white or off-white background, with the head centred and the face taking up about 75% of the frame. This tool crops to the exact square and lands the file inside that size range.
How to use it
Upload your photo, drag and zoom so your head is centred and fills most of the frame, tap Make my photo, then download. It all runs on your device.
